Advanced Technologies

Technologies that solve critical challenges in visibility, access, and safety with uncompromising performance.

Purpose-Built Technology for Real-World Performance

SBR TECH develops advanced technologies that solve the challenges teams face in environments where visibility is limited, access must be seamless, and safety cannot be compromised.

Each solution is designed with a clear purpose: solve a specific problem, integrate cleanly, and perform reliably over time. They are engineered, tested, and built for practical use across military, automotive, and industrial applications.

Sensor Clear™ – Intelligent Sensor Assurance & Fire Protection Systems

Clear Vision When It’s Needed Most

On military vehicles, autonomous systems, and sensor-driven platforms, visibility can fail fast. Dust, ice, oil, and debris can block cameras, LiDAR, and optics in seconds. 

Sensor Clear™ solves that problem directly. Using a combination of heat, fluid, and air pressure, it clears lenses and sensors quickly, restoring visibility without manual intervention.

Sensor Clear™ is an intelligent sensor assurance platform that automatically maintains clear, unobstructed cameras, LiDAR, radar, thermal imagers, and other mission-critical sensors to maximize operational performance in the harshest environments. By ensuring continuous visibility and integrating automatic fire detection and suppression capabilities, Sensor Clear™ improves safety, increases equipment uptime, reduces maintenance, and enables autonomous and mission-critical systems to operate with greater confidence and reliability.

Originally developed for demanding military applications, Sensor Clear™ is now expanding across defense, emergency response, agriculture, construction, mining, transportation, and industrial automation. Whether protecting soldiers on the battlefield, enabling autonomous farm equipment to maximize crop yields, or keeping commercial vehicles and robotics operating in dust, mud, snow, smoke, and extreme weather, Sensor Clear™ helps ensure critical systems remain operational when failure is not an option.

Built for environments where sensors can’t be easily accessed or cleaned, Sensor Clear™ helps maintain system performance, safety, and operational readiness when conditions are working against you.

Capacitive Touch Vehicle Access

Smarter Access. Cleaner Interiors. More Design Freedom.

Capacitive touch technology gives OEMs a cleaner, more flexible way to build modern vehicle experiences without giving up functionality or control.

Built for evolving vehicle platforms, this technology supports hidden controls, customizable lighting, and more personalized human-machine interfaces while helping simplify interior architecture.

 The result is a more refined, more adaptable interface that supports both design freedom and a better user experience.

Helps enable safer remote operation of windows and doors when paired with supporting systems

Supports customizable touch response, including pressure, duration, and multi-touch input

Places controls behind contoured or premium surface materials

Supports plastics, glass, leather, wood, and other interior finishes

Allows illuminated controls to appear only when needed

Reduces dependence on bulky mechanical switches, fixed interfaces, or outdated panel design

Smart Close®
Kid Safe®

Prevent Injury Before It Happens

Power closures can create dangerous situations if something or someone is in the way. Whether it’s elevator doors, subway gates, grocery store automatic doors, parking lot gates that fail to stop when a car is underneath, automatic hospital doors, vehicle power doors, or other automated closure systems, those risks aren’t always visible until it’s too late.

Smart Close® and kidSafe® systems are designed to prevent those situations entirely. Using advanced capacitive sensing, they detect the presence of a person or object and automatically reverse motion — often before physical contact occurs.

Built for automotive, commercial, and school transportation applications, these systems help protect passengers, operators, and equipment while maintaining full closure functionality and performance.
